"Pau Wau Publications is pleased to present PLANTS, a new photographic monograph by London-based artist Polly Brown that focuses on the potted plants found in the offices of the world’s most iconic brands. The fruit of two years of tireless PLANT hunting, this casebound 120-page volume, with a foreword from THE EDEN PROJECT founder Sir Tim Smit, explores the interdependence and inextricability of man and nature in even the most man-made of environments. By drawing attention to and reinterpreting corporate and cultural icons through individual portraits of office foliage, Brown offers a wholly unique and affecting portrayal of the universality of human nature."

OUR PHILOSOPHY

There is no selecting, editing and/or curating involved. If your books meet the formal criteria, it will be listed regardless of its content and our tastes.

We only list books or zines that cannot be bought via Amazon or commercial chain book stored. Also no Blurb books or MagCloud magazines, since those can be found easily via Blurb's/MagCloud's website.

We only accept announcements about existing print books or zines (strictly no fundraisers). By "zine" we mean not regularly published magazines, but rather one-time publications (which are often xeroxed/cheaply printed and stapled, thus resembling a magazine).

At the time of the listing, the book/zine has to be available (no "sold out") so people can actually order it online. No repeat announcements or "special offers" or "30% off" sale announcements.
